I am interested in trying FreshBooks. Do you have discounts for non-profits?

We do have discounts for non-profits that we can offer. We have a couple different tiers of pricing, and what we do for non-profits is give you the price of the tier below (i.e. if you needed the Plus plan, we would set you up that you were paying the Lite cost).
